This was definitely an epic adventure, I was very fortunate to have shared it with an awesome group of Jeepers. We had every kind of weather you could imagine thrown at us; wind, dust devils, rain, and yes even snow. We also had a beautiful clear day with a perfect temperature, a trail without dust, empty campgrounds, and we practically had the trail to ourselves. It was everything I said it would be and nothing less than one of the most scenic and toughest trails in the country. Everyone from the Forum that went had prepared their rigs for the trail, dressed for the changing weather, and were ready for an adventure. For some it was their first time, some their second, some have lost count, and hopefully not the last time for anyone, We had Jeeps with 6” lifts on 37’s down to 2” budget boosted with 32’s, so when I’m asked what it takes to run the Rubicon Trail my answer is; the spirit of adventure, respect for the outdoors, good company, and a Jeep.
